Spring Diagnostic Assessment Results

Curriculum, Instruction, & Assessment Rebecca Bissonnette Executive Director of Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment 58 South Elm Street, Windsor Locks, Connecticut 06096 Tel: (860) 292-5032 Fax: (860) 292-5039 Instagram:@rb_wlps Dear WLMS Families, Your child recently completed the Spring i-Ready Diagnostic Assessment in reading and math. You’ll be receiving your child’s individual i-Ready Report soon. To help you make sense of the report, we’ve included a short video below that explains the results and how they can support your child’s learning. It’s important to know that i-Ready results are not used for report card grades. Instead, they give teachers helpful information about your child’s strengths and areas for growth. This allows teachers to plan lessons and provide support that’s just right for each student using i-Ready results alongside classroom work and other assessments. Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Together, we can help every child reach their full potential. Sincerely, Rebecca Bissonnette Executive Director of Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment Windsor Locks Public Schools
